Not looking to bad for Sunday up there. I'm going to head up and sail on Sunday if the forecast holds Doesn't look to good for down south and not looking good for next week either (at this stage) Might be the last opportunity to sail for the month.

Anyone else keen (I may have a spare seat in the van)

Thanks!
Havent managed to stay on the board long enough for a nauticle mile yet but yeah was very happy with yesterday...
Theres a shallow sand bar in the middle of the river btw..... slows you up... QUICK... lucky I was hooked into my safety harness
19 knots seems so quick to me... like scary quick, so tell me - where do you get the piece of brain removed to be happy cruising at 35 and sheet in hard looking for 40???

They say a lot of the older guys a some of the quickest in speed sailing because of the experience that they have gained over the years.

So Houston you should be cracking 50kts by now..
